...every boy, girl, woman and man.
I'm sure that I don't need to explain why I've posted these lyrics - it should be obvious. I don't want this to sound cheezy, but I think that the song sums up the best way to respond to recent events. Easier said than done, of course... but in my opinion, we need this. Harrison says it all, with few words, in an articulate, sensible, and emotive way.
I find that this song gives me strength when I truly need it... alongside Labi Siffre's beautiful protest song against South African apartheid, Something Inside So Strong.
Wilbert Harrison - Let's Work Together
Together we stand, divided we fall ,
Come on now people, let's get on the ball and work together
Come on , come on let's work together , now now people
'Cause together we will stand ev'ry boy, girl, woman and a man...
Before when things go wrong, as they sometimes will
And the road that you travel, it stays all up hill ,
Let's work together, come on, come on, let's work together
Now now people, you know together we will stand
Ev'ry boy, girl, woman and a man...
Oh well now, two or three minutes, two or three hours
What does it matter now, if this time go round
Let's work together, come on, come on
Let's work together, now now people
'Cause together we will stand
Ev'ry boy, every woman and a man...
Oh well, make someone happy, make someone smile
Let's all work together and make life worth while
Let's work together, come on, come on
Let's work together, now now people
Because together we will we stand: every boy, girl, woman and man.
